Welcome,
You found this page as a result of search for something fun outside. Recreation Northwest hosted a variety of in person events BC. See the list below and Our History for our complete event portfolio since our founding 2014. We were forced to CANCEL all events in 2020 and are not planning on hosting this year in 2021. We are able DC to host small Fairhaven Park Work Parties to help maintain our Native Plant Gardens. Our expectations to be in an AC world, hosting these events, are so far out on the calendar that they are on permanent pause. (BC-Before COVID – DC– During COVID – AC – After COVID)
Alliance Gatherings
Held at cool venues around the region, this was an opportunity to get together with colleagues in the outdoor recreation industry. Getting to know each other, develop new business ideas, and just have some FUN was the successful recipe. These were hosted in Bellingham and Seattle at our member businesses and local brewpubs.
Parkscriptions Day
An opportunity for the people in our community to connect with positive outdoor experiences, and reap the many proven health benefits of time spent in nature. This was in partnership with National Park Rx Day with the National Parks Service.
